"Could never have done it without the support of Jane. Always there whenever needed. No question was too silly, never made me feel like I was doing something wrong, always there to help and make the journey a huge success!"
"Jane has taught me everything I know about nutrition, all of which I use to this day! Jane is the reason I have been and continue to be so successful in my weight loss and new healthy lifestyle. There is no other nutritionist out there! I personally am so thankful and grateful for Jane's knowledge!"
"There can be no doubt that in order to be successful with weight loss surgery you must change your relationship with food. This is where Jane Sylvestre has developed an expertise that was essential to my success. Her no-nonsense approach helped to get my brain and all its old habits in check. Without her essential guidance on proper nutrition and healthy eating habits, I would not have had the success I've enjoyed. Thank you, Jane!"
I am so grateful for Jane's knowledge and the information she provides to help guide me through the weight loss journey. Her support groups have kept me on track. She has taught me so much through our one-on-one meetings about nutrition and my relationship with food. I learned to use food as a source of fuel for my body rather than a way of coping. Jane has helped me feed my body and my mind.
I genuinely enjoy Jane’s support group meetings, exercise walkathons, hikes, healthy cooking demonstrations, and one-on-one nutrition appointments. Unfortunately, I take immune-suppressing medication for a kidney transplant which contributes to weight gain. Since my transplant in 2019, I have struggled with weight gain, so luckily, I have Jane to help me understand why. She is instrumental in getting me motivated and back on track. Jane is the best in her field! I highly recommend Jane Sylvestre to help anyone navigating through the difficult journey of weight loss. The quality of my life has dramatically improved, and Jane was a part of that. Kim Pratt
